Look what showed up today...... 1LE wheels - Page 2

Twisty81 · 04-18-2017, 04:46 PM

Got a better scale at work, remeasured it and attached pictures to post#3.
It just confirmed the bathroom scale, little difference.
To be honest I'm disappointed too, for a claimed forged wheels, I was expecting it to be lighter.

What forged material is used? There are different grades of metals. From my knowledge you have cast, forged, and billet. Yes there is low pressure, gravity, flow formed, etc I'm just speaking basic process of material manufacturing. This goes with wheels, crank shafts, etc. I'm sure the factory pieces while they may be forged don't compare to a set of forgelines when it comes to the actual material used. We have to realize our cars aren't riding 15x3 fronts and 15x10 rear lightweight drag wheels. We have big brakes and a 20x10 & 20x11 is a large chunk of material regardless. Just my thoughts.

Combine the look and construction of rotary forged, it's a great wheel

WhT rims are those?!

I love this wheel, especially the deep look and lip on the rear wheel. Really awesome setup! Are you going to buy some?

Not sure.. Don't want to spend $3k right now lol

The wheel looks good, rotary forged and the 20x11 weighs 23.7 lbs.. can't beat the quality with the price.

cmeJATT · 04-19-2017, 08:44 AM

Yep, can't buy the Z-performance wheels at all so far.. but they are pretty much identical to Stance SF03.. Not sure of the Z-performance ZP.2's weights, but Stance at 23.7 lbs is impressive.

The 1LE reps M017 weights 25 lbs.. which is rouglhy 7 lbs lighter than stock SS rims.. did you feel any difference?

Wrong... they are z performance wheels. This guy installed them with kw coilovers at the same time. He has a thread here in the suspension forum. This is why the concave looks so different than stance.

Lol you beat me to it!

Richard0nee · 04-19-2017, 09:13 AM

Yeah sorry guys, I knew they were Z-performance wheels since the beg.. No way to purchase those rims, even messaged Gabe (owner of the Camaro) on IG.

I only mentioned Stance SF03 because they are identical in terms of looks.

OP - sorry to derail your thread lol!

kropscamaro16 · 04-19-2017, 12:16 PM

still love the oem 1le wheels and way rather have those than the replicas

thescreensavers · 04-19-2017, 12:34 PM

OEM wheels are usually heavier than aftermarket wheels since OEMs use a but load more design requirements than aftermarkets do.

Enkei did a comparison with a magazine and wheel stiffness

Weight isn't everything
